Where else can you hike the Smokies for hours on a Saturday and not see anyone?
Nothing like four nights on the lake and in the woods ... with Iska. Fontana Lake was nearly full and the trails were as beautiful as ever.
The Lost Cove Trail to Shuckstack was particularly beautiful. The climb was brutal - 1000' in just one mile but the reward was excellent. The Appalachian Trail was full of flowers - flaming azaleas, spiderwort, mountain laurel, etc...
These are just cell phone photos, unfortunately I forgot my camera. (click on pics to enlarge)
Have boat, will travel....
